PRINCIPALES MISSIONS :
The United States Space Force (USSF) at Los Angeles AFB, CA is searching for a General Engineer to support SYD 89/OWI (NH-0801-03, GS-12/13 Equivalent). Description: If you're looking for a high impact job where you are empowered to work and empowered to find creative solutions to tough engineering problems, then SYD89/OWI is the place to be! OWI delivers cutting-edge technology to meet the nation's defense needs, and does so with small teams of driven, skilled, and talented individuals. Join the team today! Working alongside the Chief Engineer, program managers, operators, and industry partners, you will apply engineering judgment to improve system performance, resolve technical challenges, and help move space capabilities from development through production, test, and fielding. This is a non-supervisory technical execution role with meaningful ownership of engineering work. Your day-to-day work will include evaluating system and subsystem requirements, interfaces, contractor technical analyses, design changes, test results, and engineering risks. You will help maintain the technical baseline, investigate integration and production issues, assess corrective actions, and support technical reviews, verification, acceptance, and readiness decisions. You will turn complex engineering information into practical recommendations for government leaders and coordinate across multidisciplinary teams to ensure mission capability is technically sound and ready for delivery. Ideal Candidate: Possessing an active or able to maintain Top-Secret clearance with SCI eligibility and a solid foundation in Special Access Programs (SAP), this accomplished Systems Engineer offers extensive experience in the design, development, delivery, and operational management of complex space systems. Highly adept at executing rigorous requirements analysis, end to end traceability, interface management, and comprehensive verification and validation (V&V) protocols to ensure absolute mission assurance. Fully versed in DoD acquisition processes, defense development methodologies, and up to date engineering concepts, this candidate brings direct expertise in managing government oversight of contractor engineering deliverables, conducting crucial design and manufacturing readiness reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, MRR), and executing structured risk, configuration, and anomaly management. This technical background is fully backed by a Bachelor's or higher degree in engineering or science. To be successful in this position, a candidate should be a technical expert and mission focused self-starter who owns assigned engineering actions through to resolution, with the ability to document technical findings and brief both technical and nontechnical audiences with clarity and precision. They must be a strong systems thinker with deep familiarity with engineering products, tools, and methodologies, actively evaluating system requirements, interfaces, technical tradeoffs, and integration risks to inform space system development and delivery. Rather than managing personnel, the individual serves as a high-velocity action officer and subject matter expert, an analytical problem solver who leverages data, sound judgment, and root cause analysis to resolve emergent issues and advance critical path milestones. The candidate must be adaptable and detail oriented, comfortably balancing engineering rigor with delivery schedules while creatively navigating DoD acquisition regulations and collaborating seamlessly with the Chief Engineer, PMs, operators, and industry partners. A candidate must have the confidence to challenge Senior Leaders and advise them on sound technical and funding decisions. Critical to success will be
